It's Your Life

You fear yourself,
inside and out.
A storm rages inside you,
an ocean full of doubt.
Your reflection is a story,
it's scars mark your strides.
Look into your own eyes love,
instead of grudging until you despise.
Each day you long for sober,
your willpower fades away.
You raise the bottle to your lips,
keeping your true strength at bay.
Just know I am beside you,
to you I could do no wrong.
Let me into your deepest thoughts,
let us sing our victory song.
Quit shutting out the world,
like an insomniac to the light.
I know it's hard, I understand,
but for yourself you must do what is right.

[Fire Mage Andrea]

why are all the words crossed out?
we fear other people too, and their rejection.
if you want to become an author, telling other people isn't easy - you could get people who tell you there are better writers than you (even if they've never read anything you've written) or ones that say you'd be better off getting a "proper" job.
but, if you're like me and dream of becoming a published author, it's worth chasing the dream

by the way there's a lot of websites now that teach/show you how to manifest your dreams/dream life. may be worth looking into.
